Brass Tacks #8 - Board Communication Essentials for CISOs: Meeting Exec Expectations

The buck stops here—or does it? How much should former US
President, Harry S Truman's famous slogan apply to the role of
CISO? In this episode of Brass Tacks - Talking Cybersecurity, host
Joe Robertson is joined by Raffaele Maresca, Global CISO at
AkzoNobel, for an illuminating discussion of the evolving role of
the CISO. Rather than pinning ultimate responsibility for all cyber
risk on the CISO, Raffaele argues that once risks have been
identified, quantified, and a plan of action agreed for their
reduction, it should then be up to asset owners to ensure adherence
to the agreed plan. He then shares approaches that have proved
effective in managing the expectations of non-technical board
members who often have a more binary, "is my business at risk or
not?", attitude to cybersecurity. Whatever your role in today's
digital world, don't miss this broad and fascinating discussion."
